Hipporello collaborates with Trello to bring you the recruitment pipeline your company needs!

First things first: Hipporello is a Trello Power-Up. We were using Trello like the rest of 50 million users today, because of its simplicity and efficiency. Then we thought about how Trello can be used for so much more, and that’s how Hipporello was born. Now we allow Trello users to receive information from outside of Trello, via both email and online forms that are fully customizable, entirely no-code with our drag and drop interface. You don’t even need to use emails, Hipporello makes it possible for you to communicate with your applicants without leaving your Trello board.

A new definition for being “On The Same Page”:

With Hipporello, your HR department can use their Trello board as a shared inbox. If you already have an email address for job applications, you can forward those to your board as well. Together with the online forms, all applications can be received on the Trello board, ready to be accessed by the relevant team members at all times. This makes it possible for your team to be conscious of the whole process, without all the asking and answering. Keeping on the same page is effortless.

How does Hipporello achieve this?

Hipporello creates a unique Trello card for each email or form submission. You can see applicant information and attachments directly from these cards, and also reply and communicate with the potential employees. As with all Trello cards, you can assign members, set deadlines, add labels or comments.

The recruitment process is divided into stages with the use of Trello lists. As your HR team reviews the applications, they can move applicants’ cards to different lists and follow through the recruitment process to onboarding.
